"What are you looking for, Richard?" asked Jansen as he watched Richard tracing one book after another with his index finger. Richard was still mumbling and smiling as he watched his index finger move through the books one by one. His face looked very serious as if he was thinking about something. "You know, Jansen, I've actually read about the history of the Parasitic Creature Eradication Organization," Richard replied. Jansen frowned with a surprised expression. When he heard Richard's answer, there was a slight sense of concern that arose. But he pretended not to think anything of it. "So, what did you find?" asked Jansen. Richard's gaze shifted to Jansen. A smile that implied a curved meaning. "Very interesting. I didn't expect that the person who started this organization had disappeared for so many years," Richard said. The direction of Richard's conversation was predictable to Jansen. The nervousness Jansen felt increased slightly, making him feel uncomfortable. M
[WARNING! SYSTEM DETECTS DANGER!] [VIRUS MONSTERS ARE WITHIN YOUR IMMEDIATE RANGE RADIUS!]Jansen closed his eyes after reading the system notification that appeared. Amidst the silence in the room, the sound of footsteps being dragged echoed. All of his goosebumps were already bristling. By now, Jansen and Richard were hiding in the gap between two tall bookshelves on opposite sides. Richard was in the bookcase gap on Jansen's left side. While in the middle of them, there was a path that was enough for three people to pass through. A few moments ago, Jansen and Richard were in a hurry to find a bookshelf that had a small gap in the room. In this room, there were indeed a number of bookshelves - which were so big - that had a small space. Luckily, Jansen and Richard were near the corner of the room. 'GRRR...' Jansen's breath caught even more at the sound of the growling that was slowly approaching. It was certain that the parasitic monster that came was in a close radius to his
Jansen adjusted his breathing while balancing his body. He still felt claustrophobic from the lack of oxygen as he was strangled by the parasitic half-human monster. [SYSTEM RECOVERING!] [20%][47%] [66%][80%][99%] [SUCCESS! WOUND RECOVERY IN PROGRESS...]Frank was astonished to see the thick bruise on Jansen's neck fading rapidly. "Why is the wound on your neck healing?" Frank asked with astonishment. Jansen was holding his own neck. He didn't even notice that the wounds from the half-human monster's hands were fading. He only felt the sensation of suffocation and tightness diminishing rapidly. "This..."Before Jansen could answer Frank, he heard the sound of the room door opening. Jansen turned his gaze and saw three guard-humans running in a hurry because they looked panicked.Meanwhile, Matthew followed behind the three guard-humans. "Jansen! Are you okay?" Matthew asked with a bit of a shout. Jansen was still dumbfounded where he stood. He really didn't know what to s
[ALERT! NEW MISSION!] [Get the virus vaccine in the laboratory room and treat the T-Agyss Monster in the monster incubator room tube. Kill the T-Agyss Monster to get the liquid, mix it into fresh water, then drink] [REWARD] [Strength Immunity +300] [Health Point +1000] [Unlocked Skill: Hunting Ingenuity] After reading the new notification from the system, Jansen let out a rough breath. He had just been able to rest his entire body after the fight with the half-human monster in the common book room. "Why is it so tiring?" muttered Jansen as he looked up and let out a long breath. "JANSEN!" Jansen's body jumped at the sound of the room door being violently kicked in. Jansen then saw Matthew, Joseph, and Ryann running quickly towards him. Their faces showed concern. "Hey, I heard rumors that you and Richard were fighting with half-human monsters again," Ryann said very seriously with a sharp look in her eyes. Jansen immediately frowned and looked at his three friends in surpr
"Why are you suddenly looking suspiciously at Richard, Jansen?" Matthew asked as he walked hand in hand with Jansen. Jansen was somewhat taken aback by Matthew's question. Ever since learning about Richard from Matthew, Joseph, and Ryann, Jansen couldn't stop thinking about the answer to his confused thoughts. When he realized Matthew's gaze implied astonishment, Jansen was a bit awkward. Jansen averted his eyes from Matthew in order to cover up his awkwardness. "I don't feel suspicion, I just feel strange," Jansen replied a little stiffly. He tried to restrain himself from saying everything outright. Matthew immediately frowned and tilted his head slightly. He noticed Jansen's gesture as if he was hiding something. "Can't you be specific?" Matthew asked. Jansen looked back at Matthew again. He gave a brief smile and shook his head. "It's nothing really serious. It's just that the last few days I keep running into Richard, whether by chance or not," Jansen explained. Matth
"Hey, Jansen. I don't understand why you're suspecting me all of a sudden," Richard replied as he raised his hands low. The look on his face showed awkwardness. Jansen was still looking at Richard without making any sound. At that moment, his mind seemed to be in conflict. Full of questions and doubts. He considered whether what the two training headquarters officers said a moment ago was fact or not. "Just answer my question. Why do you always come around me? I don't know if it's just a coincidence or..." Jansen stopped his words. "Or am I deliberately following you to plan something?" Richard guessed. Jansen was stunned that Richard could guess what he was thinking. He couldn't answer at once and just grimaced vaguely. Richard then chuckled at Jansen's reaction. He patted Jansen's shoulder repeatedly softly. "I don't mind if you don't know about me. Don't believe the bad rumors that are spread here," Richard replied in a very serious tone. Jansen briefly glanced at Richard
[RICHARD ALFEIR WIBARACK] [STATUS: SENIOR TRAINEE OF PARASITIC CREATURE ERADICATION ORGANIZATION] [STATUS GROUP: THE STRONG PEOPLE] [TRAINING SCORE: 378,994] [Richard is one of the trainees who has been around since the third generation of the training group, 8 years ago to be exact. As one of the trainees with the highest training score, he has won several awards: The Excellent Brain, Strongest Strategy, First Brain of War, Most Admirable Ability, and 150 other awards] [In 2065, when Richard's popularity was on the rise among the next generation of the organization's training group, a rumor that Richard killed a sixth generation trainee who had a score almost as high as his.[The rumor originated from a video showing Richard being caught on CCTV at the scene seven minutes before the murder. The rumor did not receive any official clarification, but the news simply disappeared within two days. [After the rumor spread, later generations did not want to get the high score that equa
"Isn't this one of the participants who has achieved the highest points in the training center?" Since the last battle against the half-human parasite monster, Jansen's name was instantly recognized by almost all the training members. Now Jansen walked with Ryann and Joseph to the cafeteria of the training center building. From the moment he stepped into the cafeteria, Jansen had noticed that all eyes were on him. It was as if they were astonished to see someone who had managed to kill a total of one rather terrifying monster. Now, just as Jansen was about to devour his food, someone arrived. A man with a fairly burly and muscular body. Jansen recognized him as the senior gang leader of The Chosen People. "What brings you to our table?" asked Joseph, who looked annoyed. Jansen didn't look back and still tried to leisurely devour his food. He didn't really care about the presence of the man named Charlie. "I didn't expect you to be brave enough to show up at The Chos
